We have many questions from our Linux community about using Wayland. It is still missing basic functionality that KiCad users have come to expect. We hope that it continues to improve. But for now, if you need to use KiCad on Linux, we recommend installing X11.

Had an idea, and I nerd-sniped myself into building it...
Similar idea to the last ecpbreaker design, but adding the 5Gbps SERDES to enable USB3. The ECP5's serdes supports display-port, so you could probably do some cool alt-mode stuff, but currently only routed for SS USB.

Spun up a new design to add an ESP32-C3 module to the back of the flip-dot module, along with DC power input.
Got a little carried away in inkscape for the silkscreen.
Trying out github.com/30350n/pcb2b..., a plugin that is in the KiCad PCM for exporting textures directly into blender, works great
